I've never been a player, always a DM. Don't like play by posts. So, wanted to check if anyone's interested in DMing a roleplaying game in the full chat, on Fridays, Saturdays or Sundays at around 17:00 GMT (11:00 CST) and onwards. And of course if there are any others out there interested in being players along with moi.

So... When would that be in Eastern Standard Time? And would it matter if I had no idea of how to play Paranoia (besides the general gist of the game)? If the answer to the first isn't the middle of the night, and the answer to the second involves some variation of 'hop right in,' I'd be up for it.

Well, beware other PCs. Ye shall rue the day you let the caesar193 infiltrate your group of Troubleshooters (thank god for Wikipedia- the source, so far, of all my technical knowledge of the game), manipulate my companions, and achieve the goals of the Romans!

Not that you should, you know, know any of that. You should probably forget it. Like I would betray you guys. Right? Right? Trust me. It'll make it easier to betray- i mean, complete our objective.

Is Wikipedia going to be our only source of info? Will we have a briefing before we start or do we just free ball everything? I know there's probably not a whole lot of stats seeing as any injury will kill you, but it would be nice to have SOME knowledge.

The Computer is your friend and wishes you to have a long and happy career as a Troubleshooter. As such, and in appreciation for exposing a traitor, the Computer will provide the information necessary to perform your new duties.

If you are experiencing any stress at this time, please see the Happiness Officer for your daily Pharmatherapy dose. The Computer wishes all citizens of Alpha Complex a happy and stress free life. The Computer looks forward to your coming efforts to rid Alpha Complex of traitors, mutants, and subversives.

(I am still working my way through the rules and formulating just how I'm going to run this thing. If you want a head start, I recommend tracking down The Little Red Book; this is not mandatory, however, and you will do fine without it.)
